7.58 is his salary number. He has a partial guarantee for the minimum, at about 1.7 mil, thus the 6 mil savings. Unfortunately, the world knows we will cut him so the 6 mil has already been factored in to the 29.5 mil space we expect.

The cap space for New York in 2019-20 now projects to be $29.5M after the Allonzo Trier signing ($3.55M cap hit). The room takes into account: 1) All free agent cap holds renounced except for Kristaps Porzingis 2) Waiving the non-guaranteed contract of Lance Thomas 3) Their own first round pick. The projected max for a player with 7-9 years of service like Kyrie Irving is $32.7M and for 10+ years like Kevin Durant $38.15M.

So now the priority would be getting an expiring for Courtly.

Would you surrender a future pick for the space for a shot at KD?

Or would you punt entirely on this summer's FA's and make a trade to TAKE MORE SALARY on?

Roster Spot and 2-way deal
« Reply #2779 on: December 13, 2018, 05:14:00 PM »

Couple a things:

  • We now have an open 2-way player contract spot
  • We don't have to use the open roster spot

Any candidates?

We have PF Isiah Hicks on a two-way. 

Now with the Trier signing, we have one open two-way spot.

I've seen enough of Bol to know that he's a long way from NBA ready.

21 and 9.5 not a bad start for his first 9 games.  Toss in 24 blocks.

Even in today's NBA he would be broken in two little pieces.

Now with the Trier signing, we have one open two-way spot.

Jenkins would be one choice, especially if we want to be sellers from our crop of SGs.

I’d also see if we can maneuver for Cam Oliver as a frontcourt athlete or a viable center with a well rounded skill set. Whatever happened to Daniel Ochefu?

———EDIT———

Ochefu is with the Baby Kings getting 11 ppg, 8 boards, and 1.5 blocks.

Oliver is with Delaware getting 14 ppg, 8 boards, and 2.2 blocks.

We’d probably need to work a GLeague swap to get one into Westchester before promotion. If we don’t two-way Jenkins, he could probably be a piece that facilitates that kind of move.

Baker can now try to outscore Jimmer in the CBA, mostly on Dolan’s dime.

Thanks to Bo i now know how unlikely it is that RB plays in the CBA.

There's only 38 positions open for grabs across 19 teams.

You need to be a big-time scorer or else you will be cut and your money isn't guaranteed.

Ron's done with pro ball.
